WTF? This thread has got me totally confused.

In the first place, considering how acrimonious SP can get, I have no idea why the vaguely negative head hurt comment that Randy Milholland made is supposed to be negative at all. Hell, man, if I post at bullshido.net I'll take far worse flak just as a matter of course.

Second, what the hell is that email about? Why is it relevant? Why do we collectively care that Emo Samurai won't buy crap from the SP store or whatever? Am I missing something?

I don't know; people just hate me. They see a deliberately silly and incoherent e-mail and think of it as a sign that says "Warning, very flammable. I dare you."

As for the OP, he's a friend of Randy, so I guess he's entitled to start the thread. I am the focus of irrational hatred, so I'm entitled to respond. Pretty much everyone else is just a 'net go-ganger. Not counting the innocent bystanders. So for me, they have a "10 points" icon floating over their heads.

Oh sure emo, make this into a persecution complex. The whole world's out to get you. :please:

Now you really DO sound like Mike from S*P - blaming others for the consequences of his own stupid moves.

*Motivational speaker voice* I don't see this as an inquisition, I see this as an opportunity.

And to tell the truth, it's died down over there a LOT more than it has here. There is peace on the LiveJournal-trix.

Excuse me, I'm going to go lance my eyes out with a pearing knife, right after a self-inflicted cranial adjustment.

Lack of forthought is the reason why you ran out of feet to stick into your mouth long ago Emo. Seriously if you gave a smidgeon of thought over something before you crap it out all over the boards, you might gain a little more respect.

And as for logic, you are the last one to justify logic applied to thought.

Query: Have you ever been tested for Aspergers Syndrom?

Why does this thread even exist? Seriously, I don't see anything positive coming out of it at all. This is the kind of thing that's PM material, if anything.

Thank you. I was wondering when someone would say it.

I was under the impression that this was a Shadowrun board. I understand that threads will go off-topic, but why a thread that started off-topic (and, arguably, as a personal attack) hasn't been locked is beyond me. As for those posting: if you really want to ignore someone, participating in a thread that is solely about him isn't the best way to go about it.

Let's get another thing clear: save for creepy cults and penis pills, no one has ever been convinced of anything over the internet. Anyone trying to "talk sense" into Emo or convince him that he is some sort of nuisance and should mend his evil ways is wasting his time. At the end of the day, no matter your post count or your prestige, you are a faceless block of text, to be ignored at will. EDIT: Yes, I realize that applies to this post as well.

QUOTE (mfb)
a large number of the posts emo makes are designed, it seems to me, to make sure any discussion of their content is mostly about emo himself. FanGirl's posts are often similar, except they direct attention at emo rather than herself. i'm honestly not 100% convinced that FanGirl isn't just emo posting under a different name.

I can't believe that people still think I'm a sock puppet! :rotfl:

Okay, so maybe my posts sound like Emo's, but that's probably because we're such similar people: we're both Aspies, we both went to snotty private schools, we currently go to the same college, and we both tend to get obsessed with things that we like. I would say that the main difference between Emo and me is that he tends to be forceful and impulsive about the things that he says and does, whereas I tend to try and curb my impulsive instincts much of the time, depending on whether or not I think that my audience will appreciate it. (That, and I'm more of a "role-over-roll-playing" kind of person.) I'm also aware that my posts tend to focus on Emo, but that's because most of my connections to SR are through him. Thus, whenever I talk about SR and my knowledge of it, Emo is very likely to come up in my discussion. Plus, I kinda feel obligated to help people "understand" Emo--again, we're very similar.

So what can I say that will convince you that I'm not Emo?

Get him to change his name? ;)

Seriously ... the image that pops to mind is whenever I see the word 'emo' is either definition three or six.

Urban Dictionary

No offense to Emo, but a few of his posts seem to fit the criteria for one of those definitions.

Besides, its really hard to take some seriously when their name conjures up images of a bad teen television series. :P

Again, the question is: what can I say to convince you? 'Cause I don't think there's anything I can do to make Emo change his name short of holding a gun to his head, and that would be just more trouble than it's worth.

Adam could probably check the IP addresses of Fangirl and Emo. If they're widely different, that'd pretty much prove it.

Emo and FanGirl, I've decided to think you're conjoined twins. Will you both be my ally spirit?

Dammit all, this is such a retarded thread. How off topic is this to shadowrun?

Frankly, I don't see how the person who started this thread could possibly look stupider. Even though this seems to have become a hate-Emo fest at least Emo dosen't start random attack threads that are totally off topic.

Fun Fact! Emo and I definitely do not come from the same womb. We don't even come from the same ethnic group: he has 100% Chinese ancestry, but me...let's just say I could have fit in just fine in Nazi Germany, as long as I kept my mouth shut.

I think most of the posters in this thread can be summed up rather easily:

kryton: emo's email wanted attention and he got it. He shouldn't do it again, because if he does he'll get attention.

emo: I do what I do because it amuses me. If you don't like it, too bad. If you flame me for it, expct to be flamed back.

Platinum: People shouldn't feed the trolls. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got a troll to feed. Shut up emo!

mfb: I don't bother responding to stuff, despite the fact that this is a response.

Wounded Ronin: Huh?

HMHVV Hunter: emo really is Mike.

Dranem: What? An emo post? To the flame mobile!

Me: Hey everybody, look how smart I am! I can summarize stuff!

Nah, no need to lock it now. It isn't in the main SR forum so it'll die soon enough anyway.

He summed it up more or less correctly.

Thank you, James. When I take over the world, I will make you in charge of executions.

And how am I emo? I NEVER talk about sensitivity, and I would never wear form-fitting leather pants.

I get the feeling that Milholland may have made his feelings known about that little e-scuffle:

Dude, I just asked if he was one of two people I hate. Maybe I should have asked about you; you seem self-conscious enough to be bothered by it.

And thanks again for your fire support, James. A very late thanks.
